Abstract: Aspects relate to calculating energy expenditure values from an apparatus configured to be worn on an appendage of a user. Steps counts may be quantified, such as by detecting arm swings peaks and bounce peaks in motion data. A search range of acceleration frequencies related to an expected activity may be established. Frequencies of acceleration data within a search range may be analyzed to identify one or more peaks, such as a bounce peak and an arm swing peak. Novel systems and methods may determine whether to utilize the arm swing data, bounce data, and/or other data or portions of data to quantify steps. The number of peaks (and types of peaks) may be used to choose a step frequency and step magnitude. At least a portion of the motion data may be classified into an activity category based upon the quantification of steps.

Abstract: One embodiment provides an apparatus comprising a memory stack including multiple memory dies and a parallel processor including a plurality of multiprocessors. Each multiprocessor has a single instruction, multiple thread (SIMT) architecture, the parallel processor coupled to the memory stack via one or more memory interfaces. At least one multiprocessor comprises a multiply-accumulate circuit to perform multiply-accumulate operations on matrix data in a stage of a neural network implementation to produce a result matrix comprising a plurality of matrix data elements at a first precision, precision tracking logic to evaluate metrics associated with the matrix data elements and indicate if an optimization is to be performed for representing data at a second stage of the neural network implementation, and a numerical transform unit to dynamically perform a numerical transform operation on the matrix data elements based on the indication to produce transformed matrix data elements at a second precision.

Abstract: The invention is directed to large metal bumper mount assemblies secured to the front bumper of large tractor trailer trucks. A flower section of the bumper mount is easily broken off at its attachment to the bumper due to minor impacts with objects thereby exposing the assembly elements to further damage. There is provided a time saving and labor saving repair procedure whereby a strong metal triangular bracket is bolted to the bumper and to the bumper mount which covers the broken away exposed area and provides further protection to the underbody of the bumper mount.
